Rise Up |
| So we rise up from this |
| Little island, where reggae |
| Music spring from. |
| So we rise up from this |
| Little island, where Marcus |
| Garvey come from. |
| He spread his wing in, yes. |
| In foreign countries, |
| He spread his wing |
| To help foreign people. |
| African American people. |
| So we rise up from this |
| Little island, where reggae |
| Music spring from. |
| So we rise up from this |
| Little island, where Marcus |
| Garvey come from. |
| Harlem, Harlem, Harlem, |
| Harlem, Harlem, |
| It was happiness… brightness, |
| You could see that light, |
| Not streetlight, but Garvey |
| Light. |
| So we rise up from this |
| Little island, where reggae |
| Music spring from. |
| So we rise up from this |
| Little island, where Marcus |
| Garvey come from. |
| Yes there was that war, |
| The Italian invading, Ethiopia. |
| And he sent soldiers. |
| So we rise up from this |
| Little island, where reggae |
| Music spring from. |
| So we rise up from this |
| Little island, where Marcus |
| Garvey come from. |
| Let’s look back on the works |
| Of Mr. Garvey, |
| Let’s look back on the |
| Improvments of Mr. Garvey. |
| Let’s look back on the |
| Development of Mr. Garvey. |
| So we rise up from this |
| Little island, where reggae |
| Music spring from. |
| So we rise up from this |
| Little island, where Marcus |
| Garvey come from. |
| And when he go To foreign countries, |
| He didn’t go to stay |
| But do a little business, |
| And the return. |
| So we rise up from this |
| Little island, where reggae |
| Music spring from. |
| So we rise up from this |
| Little island, where Marcus |
| Garvey come from. |
| It’s a shame, his return |
| Didn’t accept him, |
| From the island where he Come frome. |
| It’s a shame, his return |
| Didn’t accept him, |
| From the island where he Come frome. |
| So we rise up from this |
| Little island, where reggae |
| Music spring from. |
| And they turn their back |
| Against him, |
| And they criticize him. |
| And they turn their back |
| Against him, |
| And they criticize him. |
| So we rise up from this |
| Little island, where reggae |
| Music spring from. |
| So we rise up from this |
| Little island, where Marcus |
| Garvey come from. |
